To be fair, I was one of those people...when I was initiated certain info just did not stick, and the older initiated members I asked couldn't answer my question either! We had to go get the ritual book and find it. Turns out it was in there, but I guess when you're being initiated it's a lot to take in so you miss some stuff.

No, I missed those, but a while ago it seemed someone was asking that question every week.

To AB80, I know that it is easy to miss hearing stuff, but you did what you were suppose to do - you asked someone you trusted in your chapter, face to face. Then both of you went to look it up in your ritual book together. You did not post your question on a message board because you "forgot". That is what your sorority books are for - to look stuff up if you don't remember. But of course, you actually have to have a ritual book to look info up.

I do agree that most of these are not legit, though.

a sister and I made study post-its for her car...we studied our info the round trip from columbus-pittsburgh and back. I still remember our re-founders by dashboard position.

I heard XYZ circles the fat on their pledges in front of fraternity guys. Is that true?

Hi. I want to form a sorority at my school even though my school does not recognize Greek organizations. Therefore we will just call ourselves a sisterhood. I think ABZ is super cool...therefore we want to call ourselves ABZD and use all their symbols!

"Hi girls! I'm a HS senior and I'll be rushing at So-and-so University this fall! I'm new to the boards, but I really like what XYZ stands for and I hope to be an XYZ this fall. I was just wondering if there are any XYZs that would be willing to write me a rec especially because no one's Greek in my family and I don't have any Greek friends. Any help would be much appreciated. ThAnKs!"

Two minutes later...in the ABC forum:

No responses are heard. Just the banging of heads on the computer monitors.
